Cancer...Road to Recovery

02.07.23 marks the end of a 28 day regimen of radiation therapy for my cancer.

Folks, please get checked up on an annual basis. I consider myself lucky in that it was caught early and my prognosis is good.

That is so awesome!!! They can do wonders these days with cancer. I have a friend with lung cancer, and he received radiation therapy almost 4 years ago, and even though he has a host of other problems, he is still okay, and the cancer is not spreading.

@4meAndyou mine was caught early. It could have been much worse

@JohnnyNoir You are SO lucky. The doctors at the VA told him to get his affairs in order 4 years ago, and he is still going. He was told it was stage 3 inoperable.

@4meAndyou I waited over 18 months for treatment. Needed to get some personal things in order first. It'll still be a year before I have any idea if this worked
